Personalization is a significant factor in massage chairs, as each person has needs and preferences that must be catered to. If a massage chair doesn’t allow adjustment of its settings, it can ruin the experience. Rather than feeling relaxed, you might get uncomfortable, and instead of feeling better after the treatment, your condition might worsen.
Introduction
In order to customize your massage chair session, controllers are used. The type depends on the model, but the most common are the side panels, remotes, and tablets.
The side panel is ideal if you don’t want to get up to make adjustments during the session. Meanwhile, the remote generally allows more options than the side panel.
On the other hand, tablet controllers are easier to use. This is because the screen is wider, allowing the user to see the options in the settings more clearly. The icons in the side panel and remote can also be confusing at times, but that’s not the case with tablets. Usually, there are captions below the icons so that users won’t confuse the functionality. However, not all massage chairs come with tablet controllers yet.
